Whiskey Chilling Stones
If your dad takes his drink on the rocks, he knows about the pain of diminished flavour. Confused? When you add ice to a drink, the intensity and aroma of the alcohol get reduced as ice (later becomes water) is a neutraliser. So, this Father’s Day, the best way to let your dad savour his drink is by gifting him these whiskey stones. They do the same work as ice does- keep the drink chilled, with the bonus of not melting into water or creating any hassle. These stainless steel whiskey stones from Alcohol Delivery contain a non-toxic freezer gel that makes it chilled. So, whenever you want to use them, just rinse them with water, keep them in the freezer for a while and pop it in your drink.
